"DogWolf"

graphite on lokta paper, approx. 6x8 inches.

Seth Fitts, 2012

As I look at this drawing I think back to what was on my mind at the time. This image started off a a bit of an automatic drawing and then a dog figure began to take shape (I should note this drawing was worked on little by little while I would be waiting in the car while my wife went into a store or waiting for the dinner we ordered at a restaurant). As the drawing progressed I thought it would be interesting to blur the line between dog and wolf by giving the figure a mixture of features from both species. So, it is a dog or is it a wolf? I feel it is its own being.
